Ahmedsinc 414 Report post Posted October 4, 2013 Just left court from the rehearing. Shred's application for a rehearing has been turned down on all counts. The application didn't have a leg to stand on, it was pretty obvious. In this instance the legal system has worked, if slowly. But most of that is due to Shred's failure to show up to the hearings, like again today. This is the end. They have no further avenues for regress. The order from July16th stands. Enforcement will be swift from here. My lawyer will have the relevant documents later today. They have to pay up. One way or another now. lockiess15 PM sent. Glad to see the tribunal treated their actions with due contempt. Crossed fingers they don't try to f**k you about with awarded damages man! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lockiess15 3 Report post Posted October 4, 2013 Just curious, but what brand is the turbo that "failed" that you're talking about on this page? Genuine or fake? Also brand new or second hand Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No name user 379 Report post Posted October 6, 2013 turbos failed due to oil dysfunction the oil was contaminated badly with fuel this makes oil very abrasive reports were done to support this finding which is another reason why the engine failed based on a poor tune, they also never changed the oil cooler from an engine blow up which no one in the automotive industry that is worth a damn would reuse a contaminated oil cooler very amature thing to do Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lockiess15 3 Report post Posted October 6, 2013 I'm not speaking about the GTR, I'm speaking about the guy he's talking about with a turbo failure in his above comment. Unless I'm not reading something correctly. I will agree with you on how the oil lines and oil cooler should have been checked on the rebuild, but I've never heard of it being standard practice to do so. Just something that SHOULD have been done. I know I sound one sided, but as I've messaged the GTR owner already there's two many holes in both sides of the story for me to point fingers at just one person. I've spoken to Aaron over this situation already and everything they've done for me so free is completely problem free Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
No name user 379 Report post Posted October 6, 2013 (edited) Any engine builder thats worth a damn never reuses a oil cooler after a blow up as its impossible to know if its 100% clean inside thats fact !!! As for the other turbo it was an installation issue which they were quick to point finger but again didn't have the facts to which again they got it wrong as i had never seen or touched the turbo just sow grapes me thinks. If you're happy with them thats awesome there may just be a few that aren't and i'm sure your relaying all this on to Aarron ( who is only a worker at shred ) which is why you're asking so much so no need for other details, case closed with the right result.

5amchris 45 Report post Posted October 6, 2013 Holy sh*t, Mitchell just drop it? The court has chosen that shred was in the wrong thats all that matters, stop wasting your time trying to change the outcome. Maybe if you're so close to Aarron and trust the dude so much why don't you just ask him? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lockiess15 3 Report post Posted October 6, 2013 I never said he knows it all? But it's clear from how well things have gone with him building my engine there's definitely holes in the GTR owners side of the story, no one on here but myself and very few others have probably even bothered to listen to both to make a descision. As I said in my first post, not every job goes smoothly, I work in the trade industry and we do make f**k ups, we're only human after all. But it's interesting listening to some of the things BOTH parties have said with certain things when they don't add up. As again, two sides to a story. One always going to think he's right over the other. Just because the court may have said they're at wrong doesn't necessary mean the court is right. People do crimes all the time and get away with it upon the courts decision, whose right and wrong in situations like those? Just look at the Ewen case, everyone knows there's a big chance he done it and yet he got away with it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
